文档介绍：Cambridge Introductions to Music
Music Technology
Emphasising the creative aspect of music technology, this Introduction sets
out an overview of the field for music students in a non-scientific and
straightforward way. Engaging and user-friendly, the book covers studio
concepts: basic audio and the studio workflow, including audio and MIDI
recording. It explores synthesisers, samplers and drum machines as well as
basic concepts for electronic performance. In considering the role of the
DJ, the book addresses remixing and production, drawing upon many
examples from the popular music repertoire as well as looking at the
studio as an experimental laboratory. The creative workflow involved in
music for media is discussed, as well as controllers for performance and
the basics of hacking electronics for music. The Introduction as a whole
reflects the many exciting areas found today in music technology, and aims
to set aspiring musicians off on a journey of discovery in electronic music.
